2 for $29.90 gross.

Second month in a row no UKNS, which is  'curious'. Of course, the two regular sales were better for me than two UKNS would have been.

 

Well, technically, there is no longer a UKNS as such. It's just that we're now all in the pot for news sales!

 

I didn't used to be in the UKNS, but this past month 3 of my 5 licences were to newspapers - so I guess that there's just more competition for low fees?! 😬

52 sales - an highest ever monthly total for me - but poor average prices yielding $725 gross / $362 nett.  CTR of 0.97 with a total of 69 zooms.  No $$$ sales, the highest being $49.99,  with most clustering around high $ and low $$.

 

Above average as a month - thanks Alamy - but that low average price per sale is a little disappointing.

Highest for volume (just) in rolling month with 45 sales.  Seven $$$ but one of those was a distributor TV license.  Total a tad over $1500 gross.

I had two sales for $44 gross. Four so far for the year (my first sales with Alamy)--all flower images taken on my own property so at least there was no great expense to get the shots!

Best month for me ever with my small portfolio. Three sales for a total gross of $155, all direct sales. 👍

 

But are you all quoting $ as in American $ ?


Yes, when people quote $, it is U.S. $

Feb was looking like a poor month in every way until towards the end when a flurry of zooms came in as well as my first sale for months. As it was it all ended rather well with C.T.R. at 0.97 and low $$$ gross :)

January 2021 was poor for me, with only 7 sales for $220 gross.

 

2020 total was 130 images for $3983 gross, so average per month 10.8  at  average $30.6 gross.

 

In February  2021 I had 11 sales for $331 gross, average each $30.09, so closer to last years average. . .

5 sales, but one was PU that was then refunded, giving a final total of $42.68 Gross, $20.29 net.

A below average month

My zooms have taken a real hit since the start of the year too.

However March has started well with 2 sales for $92 gross already.

June 2020 until today only 1 image sold for 2 USD. :(((
I have uploaded so far about 900 pictures and nothing happened...
 
Guys I need help, how can I improve my sales and earnings?

Hi Ahmet, you should really start a new thread with this. But - very briefly - a quick look at your port, and the first thing that jumped into my head was 'Microstock'. Very good pictures/renders, tags and captions seem OK, but they have a certain feel which suggests that market. Without even looking, I have a very strong feeling that you have these images for sale in multiple other markets, no? That's issue #1. Beyond that, I'd say that you are used to the MS way of selling: quick, daily multiple sales. That's not how it works here. You have uploaded ~900 images over a period of ~8 months. To get regular sales here your need to upload more images - and be patient. I'd say that you are on the point of commencing regular sales of you keep uploading. But perhaps think more about what you upload where. Take a look at this similar recent thread: 

Best of luck. : )
